CosmedicLumi Day Brightening Lotion with SPF 30++ has made me sit on the fence for a long time

You know , there are some products you 'love' and some product you 'hate' and yet, there are some products you simply do not know what say about. You neither stay away from, nor keep reaching out. What do you name them? I had reviewed a variant of Avederm Soothing face wash from Cosmedic. Since I had tried the regimen, here is the second review which is of the CosmedicLumi Day Brightening Lotion with SPF 30++

In summers sunscreens are a must. Thanks to my regimen, my skin is kind of behaving well. But still, I never skip a sunscreen or always make it a point to wear something with some sunscreen if I am not staying out that much. Since sunscreens are my skin essentials, I was happy to see it.

My experience: The product itself is noncomedogenic. So, I felt safe that way. It is a very thick white fluid and reminds me of Sungrace , a sunscreen recommended by my dermatologist. It claims to be oil-free. But due to the thick consistency, it kind of feels heavy on the skin. It is meant for oily skin and though I do have oily skin, I moisturize my skin with water-based moisturizers. They keep my skin hydrated without making it too oily. With this, I can't say it makes me 'oily', but yes, I do feel a bit uneasy... like... a constant reminder ' hey, I'm here protecting your skin'. You can't forget about it that easily. As per the moisturization goes, it did not make me too happy.

I am not sure whether I like to do not like it. Hence, I am just making a list of likes and dislikes:

Likes:

Meant for sensitive skin as well.

Oil-free and noncomedogenic. It never broke me out.

SPF30++. A good protection from the sun.

Has very light soothing scent to it... it claims to be scent-free.

Supposed to prevent further pigmentation while protecting the present ones.

Not-so-likes:

Feels heavy on the skin.

Expensive. There are tons of sunscreens in the market which have higher sun-protection and quite effective it they suit you. Since, I do have quite a few favorites that work for me, I won't shell out 450 INR for 60 ml.

Final word: If your skin is so sensitive that you need to be careful about the choice of your sunscreen or, if you have skin issues and have sensitive skin, this might be the product for you.

The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture-protect Emulsion with SPF 30 PA +++ review
I do not recall if I had shown you this baby from The Body Shop. Most of you know how much I love Body Shop's Vitamin E Range. In fact, so far, if I splurge, I wouldn't give it a second thought before I put all of my money on it. Naturally, when the Moisture Protect Emulsion with SPF 30 PA +++ was added to the Vitamin E Line, I was overjoyed because well, it's my much loved range!

Price: 50 ml for Rs 1495 ( 1500 approx)

Why I was especially looking forward?
I was looking forward more because sometimes, my skin tends to turn extremely dry and I do not want to layer on products. These days, I am more into products which would be multi-taskers.

Elovera Cream review, photo
I have a strange skin type. It's super oily in summer and as the weather becomes a bit dry, it turns very stretchy and dull and DRY!!! Lately I noticed even The Body Shop Vitamin E Cream was failing to provide the moisture I need at times. So, I ultimately went over to my druggist and got hold of this cream which I had used a very long time ago.

What's this? It's nothing fancy and definitely not your regular cosmetic product which you can get in a drugstore. Even though it's not a medicine per se, you get it mostly at the chemists' shop.
